Abstract: The importance of bio diesel in CI engine has substantiated, the recent research has been motivated on the use of different Nano materials as additives in diesel engines. The present investigation is to study the performance and emission characteristics of a single cylinder direct injection CI engine using transesterified Poultry litter(PL) biodiesel blend with and without Cobalt oxide and Magnalium nanoparticles as additives. This biodiesel blends with diesel, and biodiesel-diesel-nanoparticles with each and both the nano additives are tested in CI engine with constant speed of 1600 rpm with variation loads low to high. The performance parameters like Brake power, Brake specific energy consumption, Brake specific fuel consumption and efficiency of both Mechanical and volumetric are measured by VCR engine setup, emission characteristics like NO2 , CO, UBHC are measured by GAS ANALYSER these results are compared with pure diesel or neat diesel. The NO emissions gradually reduced for B20 Co3O4 Al-mg test fuel with percentage of 7.5% to the diesel and B20 to 11% for the diesel. Under maximum load of 10%, observed that there is improvement in Brake thermal efficiency for B20Al-Mg 30ppm Co3O4 30ppm and followed by 9% improvement in Brake thermal efficiency for B20 Co3O4 30ppm and followed by 4% increase in biodiesel test fuel, compared to diesel.
